Fast forward to early 2020, just before the pandemic, I started to buy BTC and I had always told my dad about this new "digital gold". He was skeptical (he's lived most of his life with FIAT and cash after all) but curious. He thought it was too risky though.
it is not new when you told him because it is 2020 and bitcoin had already existing for 10 years so i think mentioning this about digital gold is correct but it does not mean its new.
Not sure why, but last week he finally told me he wanted to try it. So we setup his software wallet and he bought 0.01 BTC. Not sure if he'll buy more, but I can certainly say I'm proud of him!
congrats to him , but instead of pushing him to buy more , let him learn about this forum and study more about bitcoin and for sure ? he will buy more in the future.
Did you manage to convince your dads or other older people in your family to buy BTC?
have done this many times and yeah some of them are still investing but I hate doing this now instead i only telling them to read here.
